Three towns, three building booms

Hurst, Euless and Bedford share a school district and a corner of northeast Tarrant County, but each grew on its own schedule. Hurst voted to incorporate in 1951, partly to secure a water supply, and went from about 10,000 people in 1960 to more than 27,000 by 1970. Euless incorporated in 1951, dropped its charter a year later in a fight over water and sewer taxes, and incorporated again in 1953; it grew from roughly 4,300 residents in 1960 to over 38,000 by 1990. Bedford, incorporated in 1953, boomed last, from about 10,000 people in 1970 to nearly 44,000 in 1990.

Those numbers suggest homes in Hurst (76053, 76054) tend to be older than those in Bedford (76021, 76022), with Euless (76039, 76040) spanning both eras; the southwest part of DFW Airport even sits inside Euless city limits. Whichever town you're in, the year the house was built decides what usually fails first.

What houses from the 1950s to the 1980s need now

Cast-iron drains under the slab. Houses from the 1950s and 1960s commonly drain through cast iron, which scales and cracks from the inside. A camera inspection shows whether cleaning will do or the pipe needs repair or replacement.
Slab leaks. The clay soils common in Tarrant County swell when wet and crack when dry, straining pipe buried under concrete. A warm patch of floor, or a meter that keeps turning with every tap closed, calls for leak detection and slab leak repair.
Tired supply pipe. Older houses may still have galvanized steel pipe that rusts closed, causing weak flow or brown water. Some homes plumbed from the late 1970s into the 1990s have gray polybutylene, known for failing at its fittings. Both are common reasons for repiping.
Roots in the yard line. Euless has promoted tree planting for decades and started its Arbor Daze festival in 1989. Mature trees on older lots push roots into sewer joints.
Water heaters near the end. A 1975 house has likely been through several tanks. Rusty hot water or a puddle at the base means it's time for repair or a new heater.

Your water utility and the pipe you own

Each city runs its own water department. Hurst buys treated water wholesale from Fort Worth and is also one of Fort Worth's wholesale wastewater customers. Bedford draws surface water from Lake Arlington through the Trinity River Authority's Tarrant County Water Supply Project, plus two city wells.

Bedford says it has documented every service line in its system (see the lead-line question below). Its meters are city property. Past the meter, the pipe to the house is usually the owner's responsibility. Bedford's Public Works crews are on call around the clock for the city side, and the city notes a licensed plumber can add a private shut-off valve. We install those valves, along with water line repair and pressure fixes.

When it can't wait

A burst pipe, sewage coming up a drain, or water you can't shut off: call at any hour and we send our on-call plumber right away. Meanwhile, close your home's main shut-off valve if you have one and keep clear of wet outlets; our emergency plumbing page has more steps. A dripping faucet is booked at a time that suits you.

Freezes are the other emergency here. Weather Service records put the area's typical first freeze in late November (around the 22nd), though one came as early as October 22 back in 1898. The February 2021 winter storm burst pipes across the region. Before the cold sets in, work through our freeze checklist; if a line has already split, go to frozen and burst pipes.

Hurst, Euless and Bedford plumbing questions

Do you work in all three cities?

Yes. We take jobs throughout Hurst, Euless and Bedford, including ZIP codes 76053, 76054, 76039, 76040, 76021 and 76022. All three get our 24/7 emergency service.

Should I call the city or a plumber about a leak?

It depends on which side of the meter the water comes from. Water bubbling up at the street or in the meter box is usually the city's, so call your city water department. A leak in the house, under the slab or in the yard between the meter and the house is generally the owner's, and that is the work we do.

Several drains are slow at once. Is it the main line?

Often, yes. One slow sink is usually a local clog, but tubs, toilets and sinks backing up together point to the main line. In older houses here the cause is often cast iron under the slab or roots in the yard line, and a camera shows which before anyone digs.

Does Bedford have lead water service lines?

No. Bedford's service line inventory found no lead lines and no galvanized lines needing replacement. Pipes inside an older house are a separate question, and a plumber can tell you what yours are made of.
